Karadzic again fails to show for genocide trial

UN prosecutors opened their genocide case against Radovan Karadzic today - despite his continued boycott of the case – calling him the ’undisputed leader’ and ’supreme commander’ of Serbs responsible for atrocities throughout Bosnia’s brutal four-year war.

Yugoslav war crimes tribunal judges ruled the case could start despite Karadzic’s refusal to attend for the second straight day. Karadzic, who is defending himself, claims he has not had enough time to prepare.
